+/// --- Day 1: Calorie Counting ---
+///
+/// Santa's reindeer typically eat regular reindeer food, but they need a lot of magical energy to
+/// deliver presents on Christmas.  For that, their favourite snack is a special type of star fruit
+/// that only grows deep in the jungle.  The Elves have brought you on their annual expedition to
+/// the grove where the fruit grows.
+///
+/// To supply enough magical energy, the expedition needs to retrieve a minimum of fifty stars by
+/// December 25th.  Although the Elves assure you that the grove has plenty of fruit, you decide to
+/// grab any fruit you see along the way, just in case.
+///
+/// Collect stars by solving puzzles.  Two puzzles will be made available on each day in the Advent
+/// calendar; the second puzzle is unlocked when you complete the first.  Each puzzle grants one
+/// star.  Good luck!
+///
+/// The jungle must be too overgrown and difficult to navigate in vehicles or access from the air;
+/// the Elves' expedition traditionally goes on foot.  As your boats approach land, the Elves begin
+/// taking inventory of their supplies.  One important consideration is food - in particular, the
+/// number of Calories each Elf is carrying (your puzzle input).
+///
+/// The Elves take turns writing down the number of Calories contained by the various meals,
+/// snacks, rations, etc. that they've brought with them, one item per line.  Each Elf separates
+/// their own inventory from the previous Elf's inventory (if any) by a blank line.
+///
+/// For example, suppose the Elves finish writing their items' Calories and end up with the
+/// following list:
+///
+/// ```
+/// 1000
+/// 2000
+/// 3000
+///
+/// 4000
+///
+/// 5000
+/// 6000
+///
+/// 7000
+/// 8000
+/// 9000
+///
+/// 10000
+/// ```
+///
+/// This list represents the Calories of the food carried by five Elves:
+///
+///     The first Elf is carrying food with 1000, 2000, and 3000 Calories, a total of 6000 Calories.
+///     The second Elf is carrying one food item with 4000 Calories.
+///     The third Elf is carrying food with 5000 and 6000 Calories, a total of 11000 Calories.
+///     The fourth Elf is carrying food with 7000, 8000, and 9000 Calories, a total of 24000 Calories.
+///     The fifth Elf is carrying one food item with 10000 Calories.
+///
+/// In case the Elves get hungry and need extra snacks, they need to know which Elf to ask: they'd
+/// like to know how many Calories are being carried by the Elf carrying the most Calories.  In the
+/// example above, this is 24000 (carried by the fourth Elf).
+///
+/// Find the Elf carrying the most Calories.  How many total Calories is that Elf carrying?
